Abstract

Let K be a global field. Using natural spaces of functions on the adele ring and the idele class group of K, we construct a virtual representation of the idele class group of K whose character is equal to a variant of the Weil distribution which occurs in André Weil's explicit formula. Hence this representation encodes information about the distribution of the prime ideals of K and is a spectral interpretation for the poles and zeros of the L-function of K. Our construction is motivated by a similar spectral interpretation by Alain Connes.
